Ten Girl Scouts from Troop 65396 (Franklin) paid a visit to the State House as a part of their government badge requirements. They toured the building with Representative Jeffrey Roy (D – Franklin). The girl scouts visited both the House and Senate Chambers, stepped onto the State House balcony and had a picture taken on the Grand Staircase.
“We were excited to meet the Girl Scouts,” noted Representative Jeffrey Roy (D – Franklin. “They were well engaged during the tour and their enthusiasm regarding their role in their government was a pleasure to see. They all asked pointed questions about life on Beacon Hill, while demonstrating considerable knowledge about Massachusetts history.”
